[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 371643, member: 24160"] Recommend spending some time in the Switchers section with eric's switchers faq. He's spent a lot of time on it and think you would find it extremely useful. And of course, like anything new, it will take spending some time with the OS. Don't really consider myself a switcher at this point in time. I do, however, have this almost 4 month old MBP that my wife claims is "glued to my hip". Did not buy mine as a replacement for my XP desktop, but as a mobile supplement to it. Never having owned a notebook, I think I would have been sorely disappointed if I had gotten rid of my desktop and purchased any notebook as my only computer. I will say that out of all the computers I have bought and built, the MBP is turning out to be the 2nd best computer purchase I have made to date (my current desktop being the best). My computer time for the last 3 months has been OS X - 95% and XP - 5%. Will say, the next time I have to go in and fix my wife's machine (for issues that I never have on mine), I'm about ready to go get her a 20" iMac and call it a day. For any of you that have been trying to switch to Linux, and like it, but at some point it is just too much to have to learn, think you will love OS X. [/QUOTE]
